Conner liars Cleiri FCSP$)I 4 t n "1 At THE SOUTH- I'o KejTlio Site of The World's Largest C tten Industry Im uiense Profits A few days ago the South's eading newspaper the At anta Constitutior,iD a leading ;ditorial discussed "The Cctton ndustry in the South" which is of so much interest at this time that we copy it in full. Saya the Constitution: Slowly and not so slowly ei her when all the facts are taken nto consideration the south is ultilling the predictions of those who have promised that this sec tion should be the site of the world's largest cotton industry. in nard times as welt as srood imes the movement to. and the growth of. the cotton mills in the sot th have kept up. In leed. it eems that during the. pinching eriod from 1893 to 1897, vvh n he northern mills were hard put Lo it, to keep their looms oing, the superior position of the south ern mills has been emphasized nore forcibly than ever. Between 1890 and 1898 the col- sumption of-cotton by the south xu mills has more than doubled, while that of the northern mills has constantly fluctuated, the ag- rregat; making a small increase. During the same period the in crease in the number of spindles was 151 per cent. Thus far in the present season the southern mills have taken 1.031,132 bales, an increase af about 38,000 bales over last season. , The lakiLgs of the northern mills show a de crease of about 80,000 bales. Dur-J ing the past two weeks arrange meutshave been made ror ah in crease of about 120,000 spindles in the south. -r; Mr. D. A. Tompkins, of North Carolina, a prominent spinner, stated recently that the question now was not so much one of com petition between the north and south as it was a question of com petition between the United States and the rest of the world; aid he advises the cooperation of Americau texlical interests to secure sucn legislation as win 1-1 I Ti I tend to widen the markets for American goods to such an extent that, instead of manufacturing one-forth of the American crop 9s at present, the American mills shall be able to consume three fourths. ) . This is a very good suggestion. but it is to be born in mind that the competition between'the mills of the south and those rf the north and east is not and never has been the result of deliberate intention ". The competition has been instituted by nature itself and is the result of conditions that cannot be ignored nor dis posed of. Consumers will buy the cheapest goods, all other things boiug equa!, aud the situ atiou in the south is sucli that the mills here can produce goods at 1 ss expense than they can be produced at the north and cast This being so, the southern mills will prosper,' as they have been A. & doiug, while mills less fortunate y situ.ited are leading a hand to' mouth existence. These conditions have already begun to appeal to northern cap ital, but they appeal even more strongly to local capital, and the result is that mills are springing up in all parts of the south. The 101 per ceut increase of spindles here during the past eight years. as compared with an increase of about 33 per cent for the whole country, has a meaning in it that cauuot be disposed of unless the manufacture of cotton goods be taken in hand by a trust. That the southern output is to be di- : . versified is shown by the fact that schools tor textile training are in course of est .blishmeus, two bengal ready in ope atioj. In this conueclior, toe dispatch ot our Greeuville, S. C , i or res pondent, in yesterday's Constitu tion, is not to bo ovei iOOKea. i .e coll i i .i.isiu that seci.u.i uave been holding their aunual meet ings, and the reports of the treas urers show unprecedented pro nTs. Now unprecedented profits iu a southern mill means some thing extraordinary, something la rge r than "20 a u rt 30 pe r ce n t dividends to D stockholders. A mill with $125,000 capita! shows a Let proiit of 37,000. The Pied. mout show a net profit of over $125,000. and others in propor tion. The profits for the current year wiil be much larger. The Poe mill, - wh!ch -xade ?2,000 a month last year, is making $ 6.000 a month this year. The result of this, as our cor -respondent says, is to arouse in .ocal capitalists a desire to invest in the cotton spinning industry, and many new spindles will be added to the total number this year. Stock. has been subscrib ed for a $600,000 mill at Ander son, S. C, and a mill with 25,000 spindles is to built at Belton. All these things show a general ten dency. New mills are built as in the old days, by the co operation of those who have money which they are willing to invest in an enterprise to be managed by men.' who are their neighbors and friends. Consequently. cotton mills are springing "up every where in the south faster and faster each year, and are put in operation without the aid of out side capital. But after awhile northern capital will open its eyes to the situation and then we shall s.;e a state of things which now appears to be an impossible d ream.

You may not have so thought of it, but it is nevertheless a nt illustration of what is going on every day in each individual life.

We go to church to worship God; and His attributes include all that is noble in life, all that is hopeful in death, and all that is beautiful in thought or in nature What a man worships determines what he is. To sincerely adore and appreciate goodness, wisdom power, loveliuessand intelligence, as exhibited in the character of the Christ of the Bible, is to t inspired with the highest t . thoughts and become a partaker in an increasing measure of that grand Divine nature. We go to church to reform evil, to secure strength in our weakness, to re vive our hope, to obtain comfort in grief, to elevate our thinking, to purify and intensify our feel ings, to preserve and restore our health, to increase ourknowledge. to arouse our love for all that is good, to make our home sweeter. to make society more brotherly aud peaceful, to get rest from care, to be better fitted for busi dess. to secure enthusiasm for heroic deeds and to find pure and permanent happiness i.ev.

If a man is always complaining 'hat lie has been badly treated by somebody, and that the world, collectively speaking, has-picked iiim out amoug ten thousand u be the target for its cruel shafts it is a good general proposition that there is something wrong about that man. While human nature is weak and prone to sin, there is in it, as a whole, a dispo sition to help those who try t help themselves. You may put it down that if a man is all right and deserves help, he will gener ally get it in any civilized com munity where he is known, if Ue frankly states his case and calls upou his neighbors. Selected. CAUSE OF LYNCHUGS- Stop the Crime and the Lncli ings Will Stopays a Lead ing Negro Teacher. A press dispatch from Chilli cothe, Ohio, June 5,'gi. es the fol lowing synopsis of an add ress de live red at that place by a negro teacher. We copy below: One of the most unique add ress es yet made on the negro prob lem from the standpoint of the negro was made here last week by Professor M. H. Vaughn, prin cipal of the southern district pub lie schools, before one of the lo cal colored organizations. Pro fessor Vaughn addressed himself to the problem candidly. and fair ly and stated that responsibility for lynchings in this country rested not so much upon the whites who took the law into their own hands for the purpose of ivengiug certain crimes as upon the negroes themselves who com mitted thee crimes in defiance of the better instincts of the race. Much discussion, has been arous ed over the address of Professor Vaughn, who is one of the ablest exponents of the racre in this sec ion. In part Professor Vaughn said: "Many of -our race leaders charge that the whole responsi bility for Ivchings in this coun try rests upon the white people. but I assert without the fear of contradiction that wh'.le 25 per cent of the responsibility may rest upon the white people 75 per cent of it re sts upon the colored people. We are the responsible parties. Wo license the evils committed. We are producing the burly brutes whom we re id of in the daily papers. 'Our sitting back on the stools of do nothing and appealing to President McKinley and to the powers -of Europe for protection will never put an end to lvnch- mgs. The question is a moral i i i i one, ana lyncmngs can oniy De stopped by putting an end to the crimes, oo long - as we S3na up ou r cries against tbs lynchers and offer no remedy for the crimes which culminate in mob violence wo merely encourage the crimes of our people by what appears to be our sympathy, "I wish to say to the colored ministers, the press and the pub lie men of color who are raising their voices against lynching ihat they are wasting their ener orioc fnr nnncrht- that, thpir pffrtrts """ are fruitless; that they are simp ly firing blank cartridges. "While we are lying back in our easy chairs howling for protec tion the mobs are doing their work and will continue to do their work, in spite of protests. My remedy is that we iu:u our howl ings into methods f f prevention. "We seemingly lose sight of the crime committed by the ne gro and see ouly thepeuaity me ted out to him. "Laws and soldiers will never settle the matter; arrests, cjurts of inquiry. trials by judge or ju ry will never dispose of the ques tion of mob violence, because nine-tenths of the people sympa thize with the rnob: we have or ly o :e recourse to relieve ourselves of this dilemma and that is to teacd our people to respect them, selves; teach them to frown ov. crime; teach them tocontrol their animal propensities and desires; teach them to do the right and shun .the wrong; and teach them to practice right thinking, since the crimes committed-by men are the result of evil thinking. "We need not be discouraged at the outlook on account of tne many vicious crimes which we heal of our people committing, since this class forms a very small percentage of cur popula tion. The 'Atlanta Consti ution. the leading democratic paper of the south, says in commenting on the recent outrages, that the vicious class of colored people form less than 5 per cent of the colored population and;that over 95 Jper cent are just as law abid ing and upright as other nation alities. We think the estimate is about correct Now must we ad mit by our ways and actions that 95 per cent of our people cannot arrest the carnal motives and lustful tendences of 3 per cent?

Thus in the course of time we will solve the problem."
